SUMMARY:The Commercial Law Research Network Nigeria Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Commercial Law Research Network – Nigeria (CLRN_N) has been created to address the challenge of ineffective commercial law reform and policy in the emerging world. It brings together researchers interested in the development of commercial law and policy in the emerging world\, and uses Nigeria\, the largest economy in sub-Saharan Africa\, as a case study. \nThe three main objectives of the CLRN_N are: \n\nto promote high quality research on commercial law reform in emerging economies (with Nigeria as a case study)\,\nto influence commercial law and policy by enabling engagement between researchers and stakeholders\,\n to promote the development of the next generation of researchers through research methodology training.\n\nParticipation is open to everyone interested in engaging with these issues. \nFunded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) Research Networking Scheme\, the CLRN_N will host its inaugural conference on the 13th and 14th September 2019\, at the University of Reading. It invites submissions on commercial law and policy reform in Nigeria\, and/or how Nigerian commercial law and reform policy may engage with international principles in the following areas: \n\nCompany Law\, Insolvency Law and Secured Transactions Law\nInternational Trade Law and International Economic Law\nIntellectual Property Law\nInternational Arbitration\nOil and Gas/Energy Law\nCommercial Law broadly\n\nFor more details on attending or presenting at the conference and workshop\, please email Dr. Bolanle Adebola: b.adebola@reading.ac.uk.

SUMMARY:Commercial Law Research Network Nigeria: Early Careers Methodology Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Commercial Law Research Network – Nigeria (CLRN_N) invites applications to its inaugural Early Career Researchers’ Methodology Workshop. CLRN_N is a network through which researchers connect to influence the development of Commercial Law and policy in Nigeria. It promotes the application of inter-disciplinary research methods to the analysis of commercial law and policy in Nigeria\, encourages collaborations amongst members and contributes to the development of the next generation of researchers. \nIn line with its main aims\, CLRN_N invites commercial law researchers studying for their doctorate degrees and those within 5 years of their first academic post to participate at its inaugural methodology workshop to be held on the 13th of September 2019 at the University of Reading. The workshop will provide an avenue through which they can be introduced to\, discuss and develop methodologies. \nInterested researchers should apply\, describing their main research questions\, outlining the methodologies applied thus far\, and explaining how these methods support considered resolution of their research questions. Applications\, which must not exceed one-side of an A4 paper\, should be sent to Dr Bolanle Adebola at b.adebola@reading.ac.uk no later than the 9th of August 2019. Selected participants will be informed of the decision by the 16th of August 2019. \nContributions will be made towards the attendance expenses of selected participants.

SUMMARY:Henley Centre for Leadership Research Visit Series: The Impact of Temporal Schemata: Understanding When Individuals Entrain versus Resist or Create Temporal Structure - Professor Abbie Shipp\, Neeley School of Business
DESCRIPTION:Abbie Shipp\, Professor of Management\, Director of Adaptive Leader Executive Education Program\,  Neeley School of Business\, Texas Christian University \nAs the pace of contemporary work increases\, leaders in organizations seek to coordinate their employees’ efforts\, particularly through the temporal coordination of rhythms. Yet little research has examined individual cognition\, affect\, and behavior in response to the “pull” of entrainment to an organization’s temporal structure. In this paper\, we develop theory highlighting how individuals use temporal schemata—cognitive frameworks about time—to interpret and respond to temporal cues provided by an organization’s temporal structure (i.e.\, “push back”). In contrast to prior research\, we propose that individuals can automatically or deliberately entrain\, actively or passively resist\, or create additional temporal structure. This model emphasizes the underdeveloped individual-level aspects of entrainment\, contributing to future research by demonstrating that: 1) entrainment varies in degree and type\, 2) entrainment (or lack thereof) is both cognitive and affective\, and 3) entrainment may not be sustained. Several paradoxes are identified in how leaders can practically apply the model. \nBiography \nDr. Abbie J. Shipp is a Professor of Management at Texas Christian University. Her research focuses on the psychological experience of time at work including: how individuals think about the past/present/future\, trajectories of work experiences over time\, how individuals react to change\, and how time is spent on work tasks. Her work appears in premier outlets such as Academy of Management Review\, Annual Review of Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior\, Journal of Applied Psychology\, Journal of Management\, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes\, and Personnel Psychology\, and she is the co-editor (with Dr. Yitzhak Fried) of a two-volume book entitled\, Time and Work. She is an editorial board member of Academy of Management Journal\, Academy of Management Review\, and Journal of Management. In addition to prior work at The Boeing Company and TV Guide as well as consulting work with multiple Fortune 500 companies\, she is currently on the board of ZOE\, a global non-profit focused on empowerment efforts for orphans and vulnerable children. \n

SUMMARY:Research Impact (Research Staff Development Opportunity)
DESCRIPTION:Research Staff Development Opportunities. \nThis session is aimed at all research staff within all disciplines. It will introduce the topic of Research Impact\, the good that our research has on the world outside academia\, and outline its importance and the steps that can be taken to achieve it. The Research Impact Team will work with you to understand the impact that your research could have\, the stakeholders that would be interested in your work (including organisations\, policy makers and the general public) and how to approach them and finally how to plan to gather evidence to support impact claims. Pathways to Impact (part of RCUK grant applications) will also be covered. This session will be tailored to suit academics with developed\, developing or potential research impact.

SUMMARY:University of Reading Engagement and Impact Awards
DESCRIPTION:From securing African farmers’ futures to building the confidence of Reading mums who’ve been out of the job market for a while\, 12 research projects making a real-world impact have been shortlisted for the University of Reading’s Research Engagement and Impact Awards. The winners will be announced at an Awards ceremony on 25 June\, and University colleagues\, stakeholders and anyone with an interest in our research is warmly invited to attend. \nEntries were whittled down to the top 12 by a panel including Professor Parveen Yaqoob\, Pro Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation. Judges were impressed by the quality and breadth of the applications. \nSpanning climate science\, education\, law\, design\, global development and computer science\, the shortlist represents a broad cross-section of Reading research benefiting people locally\, nationally and globally. \n \nOne of the selected projects\, ‘Marvellous mums’ supports local\, less socially advantaged women\, many of whom have been out of work for some time. The programme\, led by Professor Carol Fuller\, is boosting women’s confidence and self-esteem and empowering them to make changes that will help them develop more fulfilling lives for themselves and their families. \nAnd on an international scale\, millions of small-holder farmers across Africa can now look forward to a more secure future thanks to satellite-derived estimates of rainfall that are helping insurance companies provide effective cover against drought. That’s thanks to the TAMSAT project\, led by Professor Emily Black\, which allows farmers to get weather-index insurance that pays out if cumulative rainfall drops below a pre-agreed threshold\, even if their farm is a long way from a rain gauge. \nThe full list of shortlisted projects is: \n\nEmily Black – Drought insurance using TAMSAT rainfall estimates\nTony Capstick – Language for resilience in refugee settings\nJoanna Clark – Loddon Catchment Consultancy (GV2LCC)\nRebecca Emerton and Andrea Ficchi – Real-time flood briefings for humanitarian emergency response to cyclones in Mozambique\nFederico Faloppa – Leading Amnesty International’s task force against hate speech in Italy\nJames Ferryman – Biometrics Research Leads to Frictionless and More Secure Border Crossings\nCarol Fuller – Marvellous Mums/Marvellous Me\nRosa Freedman – Safeguarding Children from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse in Conflict and Crisis Zones\nHilary Geoghegan – Opening up science for all (OPENER)\nChristopher Newdick – Priority Setting in the NHS\nNatthapoj VincentTrakulphadetkrai – Maths through stories\nSue Walker – Information design\, architecture\, pharmacy: getting the message across about AMR\n\n  \nAt the Awards ceremony there will be an opportunity to learn more about the shortlisted projects through quickfire 2-minute presentations and posters from the shortlisted researchers and there will be an address from guest speaker Paul Manners\, Director of the National Coordinating Centre for Public Engagement. The event will be hosted by Professor Parveen Yaqoob\, Pro Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation. \nRegister to attend \nWatch a film of last year’s winners \nFind out more about the Research Impact and Engagement Awards.

SUMMARY:Reading 2050: 'The Current and Future Role of Thames Valley Berkshire Local Enterprise Partnership' by Tim Smith MBE
DESCRIPTION:Tim Smith MBE from Thames Valley Berkshire Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP)\, will give a free Reading 2050 lecture: ‘The Current and Future Role of Thames Valley Berkshire LEP’ on 20 June. Ahead of the lecture\, here he gives a taster of what the LEP is\, what it does\, and how you can get involved. \nOver four years into implementing our Strategic Economic Plan we’re now responding to the government’s modern Industrial Strategy by leading on a local Industrial Strategy for Thames Valley Berkshire (BLIS). \nThe aim is that by March 2020 we will have produced a BLIS that recognises the natural capital of Thames Valley Berkshire while improving productivity and taking an inclusive approach to building prosperity. \nThe co-ordination of local industrial strategies\, guided by a national framework\, is a big step forward and one which is welcomed. LEPs are here to sustain economic growth and this is our chance to make a significant difference. Despite being a business-led organisation\, we are a public-private-community sector partnership and already entrusted with £218m public funds to drive economic growth in Thames Valley Berkshire. \n‘Local’ knowledge and understanding are at the core of effective local industrial strategies. We know the importance of our area\, the contribution of – and the challenges to – our economy as well as the need to create spaces for new ideas to develop. We also understand that this is a time of such uncertainty and there is much expectation of economic policy. As the advocate of the area we have a responsibility to respond to this and shape a strategy for the coming decade. \nWe are working to achieve this\, and substantive work has already been done to build a robust evidence base. We have recently published our BLIS Framework Document and this lecture comes just as we’re asking for the support of the business\, local authority\, community and education sectors in supporting the document. \nThe essence of being a successful partnership is to be found in the way the LEP develops and fosters relationships and understanding between the many stakeholder organisations. My lecture will set out who we are\, what we’re doing\, how we’re approaching this challenge and how you can get involved. \nYou can download the BLIS Framework Document at http://bit.ly/TVBIndustrialStrategy \n \n  \nTim’s lecture is part of the ‘Economy and Employment’ theme of the Reading 2050 lecture series\, which provide a platform to discuss how Reading should evolve into a smarter and more sustainable city by 2050 (www.reading2050.co.uk ) \nThe SBE\, Barton Wilmore and Reading UK\, established the Reading 2050 group in 2013. The Reading 2050 lecture series is structured around three themes\, which underpin the Reading 2050 vision: \n*Place and Environment\n*People and Lifestyle\n*Economy and Employment \nIn 2017\, the School brought together expert speakers to discuss Reading’s heritage and history\, the future of its transport and energy and the impact of climate change and floods. A discussion on Reading’s Art and Culture was facilitated in 2018\, and there are other Reading 2050 events planned for 2019. \nhttps://livingreading.co.uk/publications-events
